Suffolk Galaxy mower

Acquired a couple of days ago from South East London, its a Suffolk Galaxy mower, it is mentioned in 70 YOGM and seems a bit unusual, so another addition to the collection…

I seen that one sold on the bay back in October, I thought then it was a bit different. Good find.

do not remember these paul but that’s going to be a great addition to your collection. have seen a mower with a similar wheel configuration but at the moment its a blank

There was the Suffolk Centaur and a similar Qualcast branded machine and latterly the OMC Lrawnboy

70 YOGM page 256 theres the Qualcast Rotacut, very similar if not the same (badge engineering)

[vhgmcbuddy]

The Rotacut had different engines fitted (2 stroke JAP and 4 stroke Clinton on later models) but the chassis and wheel configuration look the same

A Suffolk brochure for 1969 provided a photo of the machine…
